when you say " you look like,,,,"?

Question

for example, you look like a guy in backstreet boys...does this mean you look like a specific guy (nick,aj,,,or maybe brian)? or you look like you can be a backstreetboy

Answer 1

it can mean either

Answer 2

To me, it means that you appear as if you are a non specific person from a group, but not necessarily an exact person. You kind of have to understand the context the person asking the question is meaning to really know.

Answer 3

unless the person were to say you look like a specific person from the backstreet boys, like: "you look like nick from the backstreet boys", then i would think they just meant that you look like someone who they think could be in the backstreet boys.

Answer 4

yes of course, because whoever says "you look like a (guy) in bsb...) that means it's specific, that you look like one of them. hope that answers your question.

Answer 5

i think the secound one
